Homecoming Parade Information


Due to the construction in the village and the unpredictable weather conditions in the morning, we have made the decision to cancel the walk-to-school event that was scheduled for Friday, October 6th. Students should report to schools as normal.


On October 18th, we will host a College/Trades/Military Fair. This year the fair will be held a bit differently than last year. This year there will be a total of five schools attending the fair. Mrs. Sandy Hart, Academic, College, and Career Advisor along with leadership students Carleigh Eastman, Seth Rohde, and Aiden Sheltraw have been working diligently to make sure the event is organized. St. Charles is hosting the event and have invited Merrill, Hemlock, Birch Run, and Freeland to attend.


Today, in honor of College & Career Month, high school students participated in College & Career Bingo during lunch break. Students could win a prize from the "swag" table if they earned a bingo. All the prizes were donated by colleges, trade schools, unions, and the military.



Today was the third day of homecoming week at the elementary school, and the staff and students celebrated by participating in the "Lucky Charms" dress-up day. They all dressed up in green or in something they believed would bring them good luck. We are incredibly fortunate to have such enthusiastic students who are full of spirit for homecoming week.

*A message from the family of David Larsen*
October 13th, at 7:00 pm, Merrill is hosting the bulldogs of St Charles. This game will be played in memory of my dad, David Larsen. He spent his high school years playing football for Merrill and years teaching and coaching at St. Charles. The last few years, he has spent some of his nights watching his grandson, Landin, play for the Vandals.
We lost my dad on May 20th of this year. We know he will be up there smiling ear to ear, watching his two favorite teams play against each other in his memory. Please consider coming out to watch the game!! Nichole A. Martinez is a rockstar and will be making t-shirts for 20, crewnecks for 30, and hoodies for 35 for the game played in Dad's memory. Nichole has a cash app, Venmo, Apple Pay, and Zelle. If you want to buy a shirt, please message her for that info.
This is also for St. Charles people. Please comment or message me to let me know if you’re interested!
Again, thank you in advance-
Louann Larsen, David Larsen, Brian LaJoice, Kaelin Lajoice, Landin Lajoice, and Rebecca Zimmerman.


Thank you to Louann Larsen and daughters, Bridgette (Brian) LaJoice of Merrill; and Julie (Rebecca) Zimmerman of Saginaw; for donating this beautiful sitting area in honor of David Larsen. David began a 34-year career with the St. Charles Community School, including their sports program, where he had the opportunity of a lifetime to mentor countless athletes throughout his lifetime. Known as "Coach," he used his love of sports to serve the school district, coaching middle school track, middle school boys' and girls' basketball, varsity cross country, and his greatest success - high school girl’s track and field. He was proud of his athletes' achievements which included multiple school record holders, state qualifiers, and state champions. David was a devoted husband, father, and papa. He loved his family very much. David was a 1973 graduate of Merrill High School. Throughout school, David excelled in all sports, especially in baseball, basketball, and track, and as the quarterback of the varsity football team. Following graduation, David attended Hillsdale College and then transferred to Saginaw Valley State University, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Education. We will dedicate this area to David Larsen on Friday, October 6, between the 1st-2nd quarters with a moment of silence
